About CentOS Live CD
by WangMike 23 Apr '15

23 Apr '15

In CentOS 7.x, two new Live CDs are introduced: CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-GnomeLive.iso and CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-KdeLive.iso My question is: is this a long term strategy? or in other words, will they be maintained in all future CentOS 7.x releases? Since CentOS 6.4 or 6.5, many system tools are removed from Live CD. That limits many use cases. I am checking that if I can rely on the new Gnome/KDE based Live CD which contains more system tools.

This last week in CentOS
by Karanbir Singh 23 Apr '15

23 Apr '15

Hi, This is a summary of some of the major things going on in the project, its not a comprehensive list, but should cover most of the major traction points: Firstly, lets all welcome Brian Stinson to the fold ( http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2015-April/013211.html ) ---------- Updates for CentOS 5/6/7 : All updates from upstream are released into the CentOS Linux mirror network. ---------- * Moving towards Signed Metadata ( ref: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2015-April/013210.html ) * Building a downstream CentOS based Atomic Host ( ref: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2015-April/013209.html ) ---------- Other interesting things: * The CentOS Mini Dojo in Bangalore April 2015 : http://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Bangalore2015 * Fabian was speaking at Loadays a few weekends back and did a great session on Installing CentOS, Slides from his presentation are available here : http://people.centos.org/arrfab/Events/Loadays-2015/CentOS%20Install%20meth… * CentOS Project is participating in the Google Summer of Code for the first time this year, and we have been allocated 7 slots for projects. There are some very interesting projects in the pipeline. The landing page for the ideas is at http://wiki.centos.org/GSoC/2015/Ideas - and conversation around this has been taking place in both centos-devel list and the gsoc list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) ---------- Finally, I am going to try and run this weekly with a few notes from various places. Any and all help is appreciated. You can send me news to post in this at kbsingh _ centos.org. -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

IP aliases for services (including dhcpd)?
by Les Mikesell 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

I'd like to consolidate the services from several old servers onto 2 CentOS7 VMs that are currently running dhcpd in a balanced/failover configuration. It will simplify things to add the IPs from the old servers as aliases, at least temporarily so everything will continue to connect without changes. However, after adding the first one, I see in the logs that DHCPD is sending its DHCPACKs alternating between ens192 and ens192:0 every other time, but oddly it is always using the non-alias IP as the source every time according to tcpdump -n. Is this configuration likely to confuse anything? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

CentOS-6.6 - wget $? returns 0 when invalid protocol used

Can someone enlighten me why this: wget --quiet --no-check-certificate ttps://flub.githubusercontent.com/jodrell/jwhois/master/example/jwhois.conf ; echo $? returns this: 0 When wget --no-quiet says this: wget --no-quiet --no-check-certificate ttps://flub.githubusercontent.com/jodrell/jwhois/master/example/jwhois.conf ; echo $? ttps://flub.githubusercontent.com/jodrell/jwhois/master/example/jwhois.conf: Unsupported scheme `ttps'. 0 Is not an unsupported scheme an error in much the same fashion as an invalid URI?

kworker 100% of single core on mulit-core processor usage inquiry
by Martes 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Greetings everyone. I am experiencing the kworker issue where a kworker is using 100% of a given core. This behavior was only observed after having installed a new water cooler, to replace a cooler that had died. (Sealed closed loop device from Corsair) The processor is staying around 40 degrees celsius as reported by the MB UEFI interface. (ksysguard shows between 29 degrees and 30 degrees, when running KDE 4) I am unable to isolate a cause, or resolution for getting the kworker usage back to normal. Very basic description of specs are as follows: AMD FX-8350 (not overclocked) 32GB Corsair memory (1866Mhz non-overclocked) Sabortooth 990FX MB I have checked the locations for interrupts which has been indicated online, however, I do not have any specific interrupts that are showing as even having a high integer value to unset. Here is the result of running the referenced command to view interrupts. [sysadmin@imaginationland ~]$ grep . -r /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/sci: 0 /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/error: 0 /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe01: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe02: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe03: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe04: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe05: 0 enabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe06: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe07: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe08: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe09: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe10: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe11: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe12: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe13: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe14: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe15: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe16: 0 enabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe0A: 0 enabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe17: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe0B: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe18: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe0C: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe19: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe0D: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe0E: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe0F: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe1A: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe1B: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe1C: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe1D: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe1E: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe1F: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/sci_not: 0 /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ff_pmtimer: 0 invalid /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ff_rt_clk: 0 disabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe_all: 0 /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ff_gbl_lock: 0 enabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ff_pwr_btn: 0 enabled /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ff_slp_btn: 0 invalid Respectfully, Martes G Wigglesworth

CentOS 7
by Jerry Geis 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Two quick questions: 1) I have not found where I can set the workspaces to 1, not 4. Where is that. 2) My install (text mode only) seems to be using F1 as X11, I have to switch to ALT-F2 to get a login prompt. What controls that? X is not running, this is a console only. Thanks, Jerry

C7 systemd and network configuration
by Mihamina Rakotomandimby 22 Apr '15

22 Apr '15

Hi all, I used to manage network through /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* Most of my use case are vlans (ie: eth0.1) an aliases (ie: eth1:3) My context in headless VMs (no DE, no Xorg, no GUI) With CentOS7 and systemd: is it still managed with /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* ? For the mount component, I found that systemd kind of "sources" /etc/fstab and converts it to something for it (so, no worry about fstab), but how about networking? Thanks.

Thanks but changing the order of execution or executing them in parallel does not help with executing them one per reboot.

CentOS 7 and vino
by Jerry Geis 21 Apr '15

21 Apr '15

I am trying to get vino going on CentOS 7.1 I run this command: gsettings set org.gnome.Vino require-encryption false Then this one: gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.Vino org.gnome.Vino notify-on-connect true org.gnome.Vino alternative-port uint16 5900 org.gnome.Vino disable-background false org.gnome.Vino use-alternative-port false org.gnome.Vino icon-visibility 'client' org.gnome.Vino use-upnp false org.gnome.Vino view-only true org.gnome.Vino enabled true org.gnome.Vino prompt-enabled false org.gnome.Vino disable-xdamage false org.gnome.Vino authentication-methods ['none'] org.gnome.Vino network-interface '' org.gnome.Vino require-encryption true org.gnome.Vino mailto '' org.gnome.Vino lock-screen-on-disconnect false org.gnome.Vino vnc-password 'keyring' The require-encryption does not change. Any reason why its not changing? Thanks, Jerry
